I have much to compare to other tires I've used before, or have company cars. Continental these are great - very well suited to the compacted snow or slush, and other inventions came near me push the car company of the parking area in front of the store, because winter tyre not been able to move on packed snow! In addition, they are quiet, and not, as some Italian tires were so strong and hard as if I was driving on the same rim.

The tires are not the cheapest but straddle them probably do not have that feeling of insecurity. Tires are entirely predictable. As for me, a bit too loud on dry roads.

I bought these donuts as they have emerged as the latest model. So now is already on 3 winter tires. I drive mostly in the city, from time to time somewhere more. Large city pneus.Na dry very well, but only at a temperature of 10 degrees above Feel Like August bend in the turns taken quickly, and temperatures that impression too soft hamowania.Przy below 0 written perfectly. Well, driving at higher speeds, rode once in Warsaw in the evening, and 200 km / h, (steel wheels) no vibration. On a wet revelation, directional tread of works, it is one of the strong points of the tires, high drain water. Another advantage is the quiet SA, I have the impression that quieter than the summer dunlopow. Snow very well, has never been a problem to exit the garage even though it was 20 cm of fresh snow. On compacted snow as you can afford higher speeds. Another advantage is the 3 season life begins already on the tires and you can not see a major loss, I think 3-4 seasons yet enough. The disadvantages are riding on the roundabout przymarzajacym mud slip, lose their grip donuts with a slight addition of gas, and perhaps he is than for what to drive turbodiesel and high torque. Another drawback is the fuel consumption, compared to burning summer tires increased about 100 km 0.8-1L. But perhaps it is just for the winter. In general, if it is recommended the city and to drive faster.

Cool tires that give comfort and driving confidence. For now, the dry and wet sensational year, and as you'll see in the snow soon. For several years, I ride almost exclusively on Continental tires and so far never disappointed. I recommend.

Firstly, I wanted to buy Firestone WinterHawk 1 but these are not being manufactured anymore. That is why I kept on searching for tyres with a similar tread. I chose Continental ContiWinterContact TS850. I have been using them for one winter season and I am satisfied with their quality. The tyres are quiet and I have an impression that the car drives better than on my summer Dunlops. The driving is quiet and comfortable and very safe in snow. I have never had problems on road with these tyres. They provide really good grip even if you drive a diesel with a high torque on a roundabout, They are great in rainy weather but I think they are a bit louder in wet conditions (I would not say it is a drawback - it is rather normal). When it comes to pure ice roads, it is obvious that only the snow tyres with spikes would be useful there. However, I have not noticed any signs of wear on the tyres. They could have been a bit cheaper but still the price is quite reasonable. The fuel consumption has not changed significantly. Generally speaking it is a pleasure to drive a car on these tyres. I recommend them to everyone who drives often in the city. I have tyres with the T speed rating (up to 118 mph) and I have driven on them with the max. speed of 130 mph. I have not experienced any vibrations or noise at all. It is simply luxe:)

I drive on these tires since 2009 (summer and winter). So what the coming years will not switch brands unless you produce better tires.

I tested the tires Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 in all winter conditions and I decided to share my views on this sujet.Je'm super happy! On snow tires Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 behave very well even super! ! The stopping distance is short and the car holds the road very well. The next surprise is the low noise level! On dry soil adhesion impeccable, by cons on wet roads during rapid acceleration the tires slip a little but it is acceptable! I chose a good tire and I'm very happy! Honestly, I recommend the tires of the Continental brand!

Opel Astra H size 205/55 tires / R16 T. I bought as a novelty on the market in 2012. Now the winter will be 4 on the tires and about 20,000 km. Riding aggressively mainly around the city, highways, roads, town. My impression is, on the very good dry. I had the opportunity to go in the winter on the road at speeds of 180-205km \ h (temperature of -5 degrees, dry road, a little more than let index directs the reader T) quietly confident handling, no shots, braking too well. But only low temperatures below 5-10 degrees above the temperature quickly taken corners like donuts renounced ... during braking were also slippages. On a big, big wet directional water discharges from the tread, despite the 4 seasons you can go boldly 120-140km / h for deszczu.Hamowanie also very good in the wet. Snow tires as it performs very well, has never had a problem to leave the garage, despite 15cm of fresh snow. On compacted snow too much you can afford higher speeds than in the rest of the inhibition of the good donuts drivers bite into the snow. Slush above 0 degrees fine. Another advantage is the free consumes tread 4 start of the season and it is about 5-6 mm. Cons: 1.Podmarzajace slush on the roundabout, do not know whether to blame the torque of the diesel, but lighter gases and donuts have lost their grip ... 2.Zuzycie fuel has increased in comparison with tires Summer of about 0.9 L per 100 km 3 PRICE! !! I would buy donuts just after a snowfall. Big tires on the road to the city. Definitely to drive faster. After I mountains not mounted. If no price is wszytskim recommend :)
